Crosley Sun Records Carl Perkins Single Honey Don’t 3inch Record

In 1952, Sam Phillips founded the legendary Sun Record Company and throughout the '50s changed the course of music with artists like Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis Presley. In 1969, Shelby Singleton, a music executive who ran, with his brother John, a stable of labels in Nashville, took ownership of Sun and the Singleton family continues to guide the legacy of Sun Record Company to this day. To mark the golden anniversary of Sun Record Company's move to Nashville with the Singletons, we're happy to present this RSD3 special collection of iconic tracks from the Sun vault, sized just right for a hit of rock 'n' roll! Carl Perkins (April 9, 1932 – January 19, 1998) is best known as the writer and original singer of rockabilly anthem "Blue Suede Shoes". Perkins was one of the seminal rockabilly artists on Sun Record Company, creating a body of work that has been both critically acclaimed and extremely influential. "Honey, Don’t!" was originally released in 1956 as the b-side to Blue Suede Shoes.
